Giants Rising

Directed by Lisa Landers
7.7
A journey into the heart of America's most iconic forests, GIANTS RISING is a feature documentary that reveals the secrets and the saga of the coast redwoods- the tallest and among the oldest living beings on Earth. It's an epic tale that explores the wonders of these silent giants, including their ability to kindle our deepest sense of awe and connection. Living links to the past, redwoods also hold powers that may play a role in our future, including their ability to withstand fire and capture carbon, to offer clues about longevity, and even to enhance our own well-being. Through the voices of biologists, artists, Native people and others, the film reveals the scientific wonders of redwoods, our cultural ties to them, and efforts to help them overcome the legacy of logging that nearly obliterated these forests. Along the way, we discover lessons about resilience that could help us ALL rise up -- and face the challenges that lay ahead.
